    Hey, i aquired a broken PS2 off of a friend with a couple problems. He said that at one time it could take up to 5mins for a game to load, but when i put the game in it wont spin.

    Does anyone know what would cause the dvd drive to not spin?

    regards

    P.S. I cant do anything involving a controller, thats the other thing he broke.

    no, its not that. When i put a disk in it just doesnt attempt to spin, it doesnt have chance to read it.

    if you have taken it apart. check to see if the ribbons are still attached. when i was modding my ps2, the ribon fell off of my cd drive so it would just say insert disc. check on that maybe it will help yah.
